Answer:
The correct answer is option b. "Most cities and towns were burned to the ground".
Explanation:
The missing question is as follows:
"Which of the following does not describe the state of Texas after the Civil War?"
After the Civil War ended, the state of Texas entered to an era known as "Reconstruction", where for nine years people struggled to go back to normal conditions after the political, social, and economic problems that the war brung. However, it is not true that after the war most cities and towns of Texas were burned to the ground. Texas was left unprotected but more in a political and economical way, since the end of slavery and the change in their economics that were based on plantation were two major changes in this state.
The attack in Pearl Harbor is the reason why United States enter to war. A day after the attack, President Roosevelt made a speech to the United States addressing what will the U.S. respond after this attack. The speech started mentioning the peace agreement that was being negotiated by Japan and the United States of America and then, the attacks that Japan made in December 7. In the first part of the speech, Roosevelt was trying to deliver shame, shame on a country who was negotiating peace and without notices, canceled any further negotiation and attack. This was consider a stab in the back against the U.S., who were in a state of peace, pure victims to an attack like Pearl Habor was. At the end of the speech, anger and a sense of justice was comming from Roosevelts mouth, he wanted to let America know, that this act was not going to be ignored. The United States was going to enter to war, not just to defend themselves from attacks like Pearl Harbor. They were going to enter to war and make sure attacks likes this one will never happend again. The United States is a country that not only Japan, but anybody should mess with.
It is of course impossible to tell how long the Constitution will last, but it seems very likely that it will last as long as the Magna Carta since it was such a revolutionary document in its own right.
